Alright guys, it's all set up.

Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football

Look to the right and you'll see Football '08. Click "Join a League"

I had a little fun with the scoring. Take a look at it and tell me what you think, I have no problem changing anything you don't like. I weighted defense a bit more than most leagues I'm in just because it's really 1/2 of the game and most leagues the scoring is minimal for D.

There are 12 spots available. I may split it up into a few divisions if we fill all the spots. Sunday, August 24 @ 6PM is the time of the live draft which I'm flexible on as well. Just let me know what is more convenient for everyone and I'll adjust accordingly.

Other than that, lets have some fun and good luck!

Sweet. C'mon guys, lets get this league filled up!

Done!

Done.
I would increase passing td's from 5 to 6 pts
Receptions from .5 to 1 point
Pass yards past 200 needs more points like 200+ = 5 points
300+ = 10 pt bonus
400+ games rarely happen
JMO

I actually thought 5 pts for passing TD's was high! This would put the QB position easily the most important. I agree with 1 pt per reception.

Posted by: dg806

I think the yahoo default is 6 pts. Just like a rushing or receiving td.

Posted by: largepkg

That's crazy! You'd have QB's averaging 25 pts per week and throwing up 50 pt games.

Only Brady got 50. 20-30 is common.
The qb is alot of the offense. It should be high pts IMO
It really doesn't matter to me. This is how my leagues have been in the past

Posted by: the nut

Posted by: ReproMan

Yeah, Yahoo defaults at 4 pts, I bumped it to five. With passing TD's @ 5 it balances out when receptions count for points. I went with .5 because people usually complain about the 1 pt per reception, but I prefer 1 pt per reception myself. I'll change that for now. Any other suggestions guys?

I went pretty high with the bonus points because I've never been in a league that uses them, but I always wanted to be. 200yds passing = 10 pts, I don't really think deserves another 5 tacked on to it but like I said, if everyone agrees on it I have no problem changing it.

That would put a 300 (+10 bonus pts) yard passing game with 3 TD's @ 40 pts, which is a ton. A comparable rushing game would be say 120 yds 2 TD's and 4 receptions, that's only 22 points.

I'm so busy with the Olympics and getting married in September. Don't know if I will be able to do the draft. What is the date of the draft? I may bitch out. I already turned my other league over to my buddy. To much whining in that league.

Aug 24, but I was thinking of moving it because it's the exact date and time of my big money league.

I'm hoping we can get this thing full.

Who the fuck would marry you? She must have the sense of humor of a dried prune.. and looks? Having never seen her I can't say she's ugly as shit, but the odds of her being respectable given who she's marrying are slim and none.

Please stay in the league so I can embarrass you, you faggot.

You're all in trouble this year. I've done zero research which means my educated picks can't hinder me. The way I figure it I'll win based on ignorance.

Posted by: calalily1972

I'd love to but I'm not sure I have the time this year

Posted by: Doublebase

I told myself I was only doing 1 league this year. I'm currently in two. I need to stop.

Posted by: largepkg

Guys, how do I see the draft order for the league?

Edit* I see that it's choosen 30 minutes prior to draft.

Posted by: dg806

Is this an auto draft or do we make the picks?

Live draft through Yahoo at sometime the majority can make it.

Posted by: dg806

That will take several hours

Posted by: IainDaniel

You can pre ranks your selections and if you aren't there it will auto draft for you.

Posted by: ReproMan

When is a good time for everyone? Let me know what you want me to set the draft for.

Posted by: soxmuscle

It will take an hour or two, sure.. two, only if people take fucking forever to pick though.

Posted by: largepkg

When's the draft boys?

Posted by: ReproMan

LOL!! It was supposed to be last night, but I never finalized it. I guess we'll have to do it this weekend.

Posted by: IainDaniel

sucks to be me... I will be in New York.

Ah well autodraft will have to save me lol

Posted by: the nut

Saturday or Sunday?

Posted by: ReproMan

You guys let me know what's more convenient. I effed this thing up so you guys pick a time and I'll set it.

I am gone all weekend. So I don't really have a say, I will just have to rely on the autodraft.

It doesn't necessarily need to be the weekend for me, I'm flexible.

Posted by: Dale Mabry

I'm indifferent, I'll just autodraft beforehand.

Posted by: largepkg

Make a time and I'll try to make it.

5:30 BJ your place?

My wife said she's not comfortable seeing another man give her husband head...Sorry

Posted by: ReproMan

It seems there will be some trouble getting everyone together, and a few of you are already autopicking. I have no problem setting the whole league on autopick for the sake of fairness. Not like this is a money league or anything.

Posted by: dg806

sounds good

Posted by: the nut

What's the deal?

Posted by: ReproMan

I was just going to answer that.. We need one more. It won't let us start with 7.

Posted by: IainDaniel

bump

ANYONE

Posted by: ReproMan

C'mon people!! We need one more to start!!

Posted by: IainDaniel

Jodi...doublebase Get Ur Ass In Here

Posted by: Dale Mabry

How about we just create a dumby team that autodrafts and whose rosters are set automatically.

Posted by: dg806

ok by me.

Posted by: Dale Mabry

Just made a fake team, let's get this shit going.

Posted by: Gazhole

If this is still open ill join, i have no freaking idea how these things work but what the hell.

Making a team now.

Posted by: Gazhole

Team is made. Hamsters for Freedom will be at the Thuperbowl!

Posted by: Gazhole

Goddamn, i read Dale's "made" as "make" as in you hadnt made a fake team yet.

Is it possible to delete the fake one?

If so, it is the one with Kefe in it's name.

Posted by: ReproMan

There's a game tonight, no? I'll start messing with this thing right now.

Posted by: ReproMan

Ok, we're good to go, but it says it might take up to 4 days to autodraft. I think I can still have it score from week one, I imagine I'll just have to manually re-adjust the rosters if we choose to do it that way.

Posted by: Dale Mabry

Oh Snap, I got T.O., Randy Moss, Welker, Willie Parker, Reggie Bush, Antonio Gates, and McNabb. 8 team leagues rule.

Posted by: ReproMan

Yeah, my team ain't half bad either. Plax already got me some good points.

Posted by: soxmuscle

All of our teams are going to be pretty stacked with so few participants, but this should be a fun year.

Posted by: ReproMan

Dale's team is very possibly the greatest fantasy team ever assembled.

Posted by: Doublebase

Start/Bench? Mcfadden or Fargus? My top lineup says start McFadden but I dunno. Fargus played much better last week.

Posted by: Doublebase

Guess I'm going with Fargus.

Posted by: Doublebase

Come on Repro, no input?

Posted by: Doublebase

to late now.

Posted by: ReproMan

Heh, sorry. I haven't been paying much attention to fantasy this year for some reason. Usually I study it like I'm taking the MCATs.

Posted by: Doublebase

Shit!!!!!!!

How come it didn't give any wins and losses for the first week?

Wow.... did San Diego ever get robbed. Terrible Calls

I have to go back and tell it to score from the first week. I think it did that because we drafted so close to the start of the season.

Posted by: Doublebase

Wow. Bonehead move there Jackson.

Posted by: ReproMan

Yeah, that was fucked.

Posted by: ReproMan

That's what I thought. Just like last night @ Denver.

Posted by: Dale Mabry

That cost me 6 points. fucker.

Posted by: Doublebase

I hate T.O. He is tearing our secondary apart.

Posted by: ReproMan

Fuck him. Holding.

Posted by: Doublebase

What do you think of this trade.

I am being offered:
Brandon Marshal
Johathon Stewart
Darren Mcfadden

For:
Brandon Jackson (GB back up RB)
Randy Moss
Willie Parker

Posted by: ReproMan

I don't know. I like Brandon Marshall, but I have him and he's already had a huge game. From the looks of things though the team that is offered to you will get more touches than the others.

The Birds are getting all the calls right now, they need to capitalize.

Its a pretty even trade. My other RB is Larry Johnson. So I really don't want to get rid of Willie Parker. They won't take LJ either. I can't blame em.

Posted by: Doublebase

That would be great if they score a TD right here.

Posted by: Doublebase

Wow McNabb is crazy.

Posted by: ReproMan

I'll take a 9 pt lead going into the half.

Posted by: ReproMan

Fuck Romo. Even though he's my QB in my big money league, I still can't cheer for him.

Posted by: Doublebase

Yeah, I know. I got him my big money league also. I need him to throw like 3 more TD's tonight. Just as long as McNabb throws 4.

Posted by: ReproMan

As long as Romo doesn't throw to Witten a lot, I win.

Posted by: ReproMan

Week one scoring is fixed.
